I broke in new shoes and all the thanks I got were fresh blisters. It was my last day in San Francisco, one of my favorite cities in the world (until I go to Italy), and after my company event was over at the Palace Hotel, I, your die-hard shopper, was determined to find something unique for my husband.

I was and still am the vessel of a horrible cold. The worse condition to be in when performing my happiest feat – shopping. I call it a feat because it takes stamina and focus. If I could do this for a living, well…
That brings me back to the “best buy”. I was determined to NOT leave San Francisco with bleeding ankles due to beautiful shoes. Luckily a fellow shopper gave me a shopping map of the area and I found a New Balance cross country shoes for $19.99 at ROSS. Add on a pair of comfy socks and I was back in business! Well, except for the nagging cough and congestion, all things considered I did enjoy the shopping mission. I just wish I had a weekend and not 2 hours to immerse myself into San Fran.
I found a belt at Aldo Accessories for my hubby – no cool socks though. He won’t wear anything metro, so stripes were out, lol…I also bought a shiny black backpack, but with one smirk from him I knew it was a definite return.
So now, I spent the last 2.5 days recuperating, hacking up my left lung and thanking the DirectTV powers that be for running some of my favorite feel-good movies: Kate & Leopold, Someone Like You. Is there anything Hugh Jackman can not do?
Have you seen that belt?
btw, i read your blogs :p
I haven’t seen the belt fatso. I know, I got mad writing skills!
